Philippine Economic Update and Opportunities in the Healthcare Information Management Services: |

The program shared the good news about the Philippines, which is one of the fastest growing economies in Asia, and its capabilities in information technology business processing, particularly healthcare information management services.
More than eighty participants, most of whom were business executives and healthcare administrators, attended the forum.
ADEC Innovations CEO James Donovan, Full Scale CEO Matt DeCoursey, and Visaya KPO CEO Butch Valenzuela provided testimonials on how they benefited from the location advantages of the Philippines to grow their enterprises through a conducive business environment and a highly skilled, dedicated and customer focused workforce.
The forum also provided an opportunity for delegates from the Philippines to network with their counterparts in Chicago and explore new business opportunities.
Our Key takeaways:
- We learned about how
Philippines
have been addressing the nursing shortage in the USA though advanced training and credentialing.
- That the
Philippines should be a one trillion-dollar ($1T) economy by 2032.
